March 8, 2017 Naples Gulf Shore Sunset Rotary Meeting


On Wednesday Morning, March 8, 2017 President, Rob Samouce, led the Club in the invocation and the pledge.  Rob discussed members purchasing American Flags for their homes as part of a District Wide Project.  If you want a 3 x 5 foot flag with pole and bracket for mounting (only $25) let Rob know. Sgt. At Arms, Robbie Selby then went over again the Rotary Social we will be having at Wyndemere Country Club on Wednesday evening, March 29th, in honor of Bob Hattemer.  We will be playing Pickle Ball and Boccie Ball while enjoying happy hour. Please bring a prospective member, spouse or significant other and make sure to wear your most classy country club colorful slacks/pants to see if you can win the Hattemer Classy Pants Challenge.  Jon Titus then talked about the upcoming Paint Ball Tournament now planned for June 3rd at a field owned by the Collier’s located out by Ava Maria.

Rob then introduced our guest speakers, Lawrence J. Egger (PA-C) and Geneve Egger (Nurse) Co-Founders of Panira Healthcare Clinic, a not-for-profit Community Health Clinic located in East Naples that just had its 1st anniversary yesterday.  The Clinic offers Express Care, Wellness Care, and Family Practice to low and no income individuals.  Patients range from 12 months old to 65+.  The Clinic is located at The Village Falls on the East Trail.  Patients must show their income to determine how much they will be charged.  The Clinic is in need of an X-Ray machine and will kindly accept donations.  You can make a much needed donation at their website:  http://www.panirahealthcareclinic.org/donate.html

Robbie then collected happy bucks.
